This point of this game now seems to be Yomi waiting till its ready to throw up a bunch of simultaenous global spells and then tell everyone "Guess what I managed to in a blitz game, yes you heard right in a blitz game !"
It hasn't happened yet but thats what we think up in the north - those devious, smelly little demons - what else could they be up to ?

I can assure you I am not toying with you, just proceeding cautiously.
Oceania has been throwing harassing attacks at my main force in the south--and you just beat my main force in the north (although it was probably an order of magnitude weaker than the southern one  ). If I run north to attack your army, I run the risk of raids in the south by Oceania.
The game might be closer than you think.
Unless you were counting on your pretender  and can't get her back quickly.

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
Oceania lost most of its armies (and its pretender 3 times) trying to reach the other ocean. Sauromatia finally let me in. Due to such early losses I doubt that Im in a winning position but will be hard to erradicate, and I can affect the outcome of the game.
I still have my eye on Arcos home province on one side, and YOURS on the other. Go ahead and step north. heehee

If YOURS=Yomi, don't you have to go through Arcos cap to get to Yomi's?
Unless stealthy buggers have made the trip? (& your love of stealth is well-known)
EA Oceania isn't stealthy though, is it?

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
Actualy I now own the ocean on both sides. Expect some heavy preaching soon.
To get there I had to talk Saurmatia to leaving a water province completely so I could take it with a scout (louckily he couldnt build PD) then I made the scout my prophet so I can build temples. Hiring that water mage into the new ocean got me a lab.
You will now feel the squeeze

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
By the way, I "oopsed".
I rarely announce the games Im in, and even rarer doing it as my moderator. It doesnt seem appropriate in this forum. Only the beta-test forum knew me as the games I was in.

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
This doesnt feel right now. There would be repercussions to me if I lost. There would be repercushions to me if I won.
options:
A) I go AI
B) we ask for a sub

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
I am happy with either course of action - it just occurred to me that we could invite llamabeast to step in as he is beating me soundly in another of Gandalf's hosted games. I have no idea if the beast would be interested.
I am not suggesting in any way here that beating me soundly is a mark of a good player  or an average player  or the AI set to easy  |
